Internet Speed Test
Accurately test your internet connection speed. Measure download speed, upload speed, ping, and jitter to troubleshoot WiFi or ethernet performance issues.
This tool measures your real-time download speed by fetching temporary data from high-speed content delivery networks (CDNs) directly in your browser. No data is stored or sent to our servers.
About the Internet Speed Test
The Internet Speed Test by Coders Kit is a lightweight, browser-based tool designed to measure your network performance in real-time. We test your download speed and latency (ping) by establishing a connection to high-speed global servers. Whether you are troubleshooting slow buffering, checking your WiFi signal strength, or verifying if you are getting the bandwidth you pay for, this tool gives you instant answers.
What We Measure
Download Speed
Measured in Mbps (Megabits per second), this indicates how fast your connection can pull data from the internet. Higher download speeds mean faster loading for videos, websites, and file downloads.
Latency (Ping)
Measured in milliseconds (ms), latency represents the reaction time of your connection. A lower ping means a more responsive connection, which is critical for online gaming and video calls.
Client-Side Accuracy
Our test runs directly in your browser using standard HTTP protocols. This provides a realistic measure of how your actual browsing experience performs under load.
Why is My Internet Slow?
- WiFi Interference: Walls, distance, and other electronic devices can weaken your WiFi signal.
- Network Congestion: Speeds often drop during "peak hours" (evenings) when many people in your area are online.
- Router Issues: An outdated or overheating router can significantly throttle your connection speed.
- Background Activity: Large downloads or streaming on other devices in your home uses up available bandwidth.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- What is a good download speed?
- For general browsing, 25 Mbps is sufficient. For 4K streaming and gaming, experts recommend 100 Mbps or higher. For multiple users, Gigabit (1000 Mbps) is ideal.
- Why is my result different from my plan?
- ISPs advertise "up to" speeds using wired connections. WiFi is naturally slower than Ethernet. Also, network congestion can reduce speeds below the advertised maximum.
- How does this test work?
- We download a sample file from a high-performance server network and measure how long it takes to complete. We calculate the speed based on the file size and time taken.
